Chapter 233 - Men addicted to the Internet
In the afternoon, after work, He Mei Xin was packing up when she received a call from Huo Xi Wen to invite her for dinner.
After agreeing to Huo Xi Wen's appointment, she glanced in the direction of the general manager's office. Her trip today was basically over, and she hadn't left yet.After some thought, she walked to the door of the general manager's office and lightly knocked on the door.
"Come in." Huo Jia Bao's voice came from inside.
When she pushed open the door and entered, she saw Huo Jia Bao sitting in front of a computer, staring at a computer screen with a face full of concentration. One hand held the mouse, while the other hand was placed on the keyboard.
"Hutong, do you have any other instructions today?" He Mei Xin stood in front of him, her hands clasped at her lower abdomen, her body standing straight, and asked formally.
"There's nothing else." Huo Jia Bao replied without even raising his head.
"Alright, since you don't have any orders, then I'll get off work." After He Mei Xin finished speaking, she turned around and prepared to leave.
Hearing that, Huo Jia Bao immediately called out to her, "You … "Wait a moment."
He Mei Xin turned her head, "Hutong, do you have something to tell me?"
"En, come over here and help me clear the instance dungeon. I need to go to the toilet." Huo Jia Bao said as he stood up.
"…" After He Mei Xin heard this, her face was full of question marks.
When he walked over to take a look, he saw that Huo Jia Bao was actually playing online games."I'm sorry, Hutong, I don't know how to play …" He Mei Xin looked at the computer with a face of helplessness. She had never thought that the manager who was usually serious at work would actually be a young man addicted to the Internet.
"It's very simple. You just have to follow the team. The skills you use are Q, W, E, and R. You can press any button you want." After Huo Jia Bao finished speaking, he extended his hand and pulled her into the large chair, pressing her shoulders and asked her to sit down. He then turned around and walked out of the office and went to the bathroom.
He Mei Xin looked at the beautiful scene of the game, her entire face at a loss.
She really didn't know how to play games. Although she had watched her boyfriend play games in college, it was precisely because of his obsession with online games that their relationship on campus didn't reach the end.Now that she was at work, she didn't expect to help the boss clear the dungeon.
Forget it, for the sake of my salary, I'll just bite the bullet and go up.
After the party leader started the game, He Mei Xin followed the group and started fighting the BOSS. As she did not know what those skills were, coupled with her unfamiliar manipulation, it did not take long for her colorful picture to turn black.
After reviving in a hurry, they wanted to enter the dungeon again, but at this moment, another pair of players came out from the dungeon. The other side approached them aggressively and started fighting them without saying a word.
The scene was very chaotic.
After He Mei Xin persevered for a long time, she laid down once again. At this time, the dialogue box seemed to explode, and everyone was scolding her.Seeing that, He Mei Xin knew she had messed it up. She was thinking if she should revive again, when she saw the door of the office pushed open from the outside. Huo Jia Bao had already returned from the bathroom.
"Is it over?" After he entered, he headed straight for his desk.
He Mei Xin hurriedly stood up and shook her head, "No … "No …"
"Still not done yet?" Huo Jia Bao frowned, he walked to the front of the computer, and was about to explode.
He took a deep breath and roared at He Mei Xin, "He Mei Xin! You Stupid woman, you actually killed me twice! "It even caused our group to be annihilated …""I... "That, I said I don't know how to play …" He Mei Xin lowered her head, closed her eyes and softly tried to defend herself.
"You …" Huo Jia Bao was so angry that he was at a loss for words, when he looked at the dialogue box again, he was almost scolded by his teammates, causing his entire face to turn green.
What made him most infuriated was that the God-level equipment that he had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on was actually dropped by the enemy camp after they killed him.
Huo Jia Bao finally erupted, "He Mei Xin, are you a pig? Do you think you can fight like this? Why are you charging forward with that brittle skin of yours? Do you know how rare my equipment is? "
"Hutong, right … "Sorry …" He Mei Xin could only lower her head and apologize."What's the use of being sorry? I don't care, you have to beat this equipment back for me. I'll give you half a month to learn this game, and then I'll specially help me forge equipment. If you can't get it out in a month, then I'll deduct the money from your salary for buying equipment. " Huo Jia Bao said aggressively.
"…" He Mei Xin felt that he was making trouble for no reason, and felt wronged in her heart, "I told you before that I didn't know how to play, and it was you who forced me to play."
"How do I know you're so stupid? How could you be my secretary? "Either you do as I say, or you pack your things and get out of here. Choose for yourself." Huo Jia Bao did not care about whether she was wronged or not, he only felt bad for his precious equipment.
"How much did you get for that equipment?" Wasn't it fine for her to admit defeat? She definitely wouldn't learn to play games, at most she would just lose some money. In any case, this month's salary was already half gone. If she couldn't do it, she would compensate the other half. She would just treat it as buying a lesson.
"What is it? You want to lose money? "Not too much, just a hundred and sixty thousand." Huo Jia Bao lazily said as he looked at He Mei Xin's expression, which showed that she had nothing to lose.
"…" He Mei Xin felt that she might really be able to consider changing jobs.How could she afford to pay the one hundred and sixty thousand?
Her current young master was only around fifteen thousand a month after tax. A hundred and sixty thousand would be equivalent to half a year's salary.
"Hutong, you … It can't be a lie, right? " She couldn't believe it. What kind of person would spend so much money on a game, and it was just a piece of equipment? Wasn't the entire set over a million?Wasn't this kind of person retarded?
"He Mei Xin, one more word, do you believe that I won't throw you down?" It was one thing for him to die twice, be scolded by the team members collectively, and even lose all of her top-quality equipment. This Stupid woman actually dared to question him now, it was really pissing him off to death."I... I won't say anymore. Can you tell me how to register that game? She didn't believe that she wouldn't be able to learn it.
"Go and study it yourself. I'll give you five seconds, and you'll immediately disappear from my sight." "Scram!" Huo Jia Bao roared, scaring He Mei Xin so much that he almost ran out of the office.
Returning to his seat, he picked up his bag and looked at his phone. Huo Xi Wen had already called him multiple times.
Call her back at once, and she stepped into the elevator.
"Miss Huo, I was busy just now. Sorry, I couldn't get a call." She apologized and pressed down on the floor."No worries, I've already parked my car in front of the company. You can see me as soon as you get down." Huo Xi Wen said.
"Alright, see you later." After He Mei Xin finished speaking, she hung up.
When the elevator reached the first floor, she immediately walked out and headed for the door.
At this time, many of his colleagues had already gotten off work and were walking outside.
He Mei Xin walked out of the door, and immediately saw Huo Xi Wen's white Ferrari as well as her imposing manner at the main entrance. She quickly walked over, opened the door, and under the gaze of the rest of the employees of Hauptmann's, she got in the car.
"I'm sorry, Miss Huo, I've kept you waiting." After He Mei Xin fastened his seat belt, he immediately apologized.Huo Xi Wen laughed, "Mei Xin, there is no need to be so polite with me, are we not good friends anymore? Don't keep on calling me Miss He, just like Qingyun, call me Xi Wen. "
"Alright, Xi Wen." He Mei Xin knew that Huo Xi Wen genuinely considered her to be a friend, and was no longer courteous with her. She only felt a little embarrassed and said."That's right. How about it? Have you thought about what to eat? "I'll treat you. Feel free to eat anything you want." Huo Xi Wen started the car and asked.
"How about we go eat hotpot? Speaking of which, I should be the one treating you. Thank you for giving me a job. However, I don't have much money right now, so I can't treat you to a high-class meal. When I'm paid, I'll treat you to luxurious food. " He Mei Xin said.When Huo Xi Wen heard her words, he originally planned to treat her to a meal. However, looking at how He Mei Xin was acting, she knew that because of her work, he had always felt that he owed her a great favor.
Thus, the two of them drove to a nearby hotpot restaurant.
Arriving at the hotpot restaurant, Huo Xi Wen parked the car and the two went upstairs. Under the arrangements of the waiter, they found a good seat and ordered some dishes.
Huo Xi Wen noticed that He Mei Xin was completely listless, and joked, "What's wrong? She was fine a moment ago, but why did she look so dispirited now? You're not afraid that I'll eat you up, are you? "
He Mei Xin shook her head, "No, Xi Wen, do you play online games or not?"
"Online games? If I don't want to play, Huo Jia Bao likes to play with that thing. What's wrong? Why did you suddenly ask about this? Could it be that Huo Jia Bao wanted you to help him play the game? " Huo Xi Wen knew that with Huo Jia Bao's eccentric personality, there was nothing he couldn't do.
"Nope, I just found a game that's pretty fun, so I wanted to play it myself." He Mei Xin was afraid that Huo Xi Wen would find out that she was scammed by Huo Jia Bao, and make a ruckus on her behalf.
"What game?" I don't play games, so I don't know. " Huo Xi Wen shook her head."Nothing, it's fine. I'll just study it myself later." He Mei Xin laughed dryly a few times, and casually replied.
The two then changed the subject and began to talk about other things.
The waiter began to serve the food, and the two of them once again threw themselves into the hotpot, completely forgetting about the game.
Halfway through eating, Huo Xi Wen's phone suddenly rang. It was Zhang Jun Xian who called.
After answering the call, she placed the phone by her ear. "Hello …"
"May I ask if you are Miss Huo? Mr. Zhang is at our restaurant. He seems to have had too much to drink. There was an unfamiliar man's voice on the phone.
